A beautiful day here in the Philadelphia suburbs complemented by a great shave with a newly acquired Wade & Butcher 7/8 partial wedge. With its newly honed jasper edge and heft in hand it sheared through my my mug stubble effortlessly leaving a smooth velveteen shave surface. My Supply V2 took care of my dome in much the same way floating on its own slick, yogurty MWF lather carpet. Humphrey’s Lilac WH and Osage Rub completed a great shave on day two of the US election process. I feel refreshed, clean and velveteen smooth.

Ethos Succe`s EdP (sample)

The Ethos Succe`s software is great. It's really a very thick cream. The lather is wonderful, and the scent has rapidly become a favorite. The Personna razor gave me an almost-BBS shave, even with a blade at the end of its life. Its angle of attack was about the same as that of the BBS-1. The Personna probably would have been better with a handle larger and heavier than its tiny and extremely lightweight (9.3mm/75mm, 12 g) handle. I'll try it again in a couple days with a P74 Tungsten blade and with the LASSC handle on it, after using the LASSC BBS-1 tomorrow. A quick look at the two razors together shows their similarity in design. (I'll post photos tomorrow.)
